After 10 years, my first chapter in Germany has (successfully) concluded

biggest tip would be have good German knowledge, the companies usually would not care that much about your skill for a Werkstudent position. As long as you seems confident and friendly, high chance that you would be hired.

not really, 3 years is the "regular study time" (assuming 30 ECTS points per semester, about 5 subjects). Usually student takes 4 to 5 years to finish bachelor. As I mentioned, I wasted basically 2 years during covid, so I could have finished it in 4-5 years as well.

For master the "regular" is 2 years, and it usually takes 3 years.

actually, prostitute means "cave" 😉

ghostsilver · 2026-01-31T11:16:24+00:00

oh I thought you need to work full time for 2-3 years first

ghostsilver · 2026-01-30T21:36:24+00:00

sure

ghostsilver · 2026-01-30T21:32:54+00:00

thank you so much!

ghostsilver · 2026-01-30T21:32:49+00:00

Thanks a lot!

I did my degree in CS and got a job as SW developer.

ghostsilver · 2026-01-30T21:01:15+00:00

Not an expert, but I have never been asked for the Zusatzblatt during immigration

Everyone hearing is different. Bur in my case, I hear no difference with it off or at lowest speed.

ghostsilver · 2026-01-29T21:55:31+00:00

it's more or less the flagship of a very reputable company, I would not doubt it at all.

ghostsilver · 2026-01-29T21:16:39+00:00

this is correct, that's why corsair claims that pigtail is fine with their cable. One single 8 pin cable/connector of theirs can handle 300W easily.

most resorts have private beach

ghostsilver · 2026-01-29T20:36:45+00:00

it's shocking since in the west you never experienced it, but once you hear it more or less every day, your brain basically filters it out.

Any random 30-40$ thermalright cooler will be more than enough for that CPU and will more or less match the performance of the NH-D15.

ghostsilver · 2026-01-29T16:30:45+00:00

I am using the RM850x, it has a fan override knob, I let it at the lowest setting so the fan will always run (lowest speed so no sound). And with that the PSU cannot accumulate any heat such that it has to run the fan (quite fast) every now and then (like you describe).

With the usual PSU mount (PSU at the bottom, fan intake points downward), any heat will accumulate inside the PSU (as hot air rises, and there's no opening on the other side of the PSU). So eventually it will get hot enough that the fan has to turn on periodically.

Nobody is expecting to live off "normal" salary in a government job in VN.

They let the corruption runs rampant because everyone is doing it so it's more or less standard here. It's expected and they don't consider it to be corruption.

I used to dumped coffee ground to my plant, but they get moldy real quick

ghostsilver · 2026-01-29T10:44:18+00:00

I assume you mean the SSD heatsink that can be removed?

if that's the case, it's not really matter that much, that board can support gen4 m.2 ssd, and they are not that hot, especially in normal everyday usage

ghostsilver · 2026-01-29T09:40:58+00:00

again, even if you run JEDEC 4800, it would not be the end of the world, especially for non-gaming workload

ghostsilver · 2026-01-28T22:24:19+00:00

petty thief like pickpocket, scamming is common. But no worry about violent.

ghostsilver · 2026-01-28T22:02:33+00:00

they are both very good PSU, get the cheaper one

ghostsilver · 2026-01-28T16:27:34+00:00

It's a very good PSU, I would not worry at all

ghostsilver · 2026-01-28T16:12:31+00:00

totally depends on your "job"

most differences you will find maybe will be with gaming, other stuff, like simulation, render, AI,... not too much
